-Washington, D.C. -October 19, 2023. The Metropolitan Police Department released the body-worn camera footage of the tense moments leading up to a shooting that injured one of its officers and killed an armed suspect in Southeast D.C. on Oct. 19. Officials said during a press conference Thursday, that around 5 p.m. on Oct. 19, MPD officers responded to the 2800 block of Gainesville Street, Southeast for the report of a man with a gun involved in a dispute with two women. Seventh District officers rushed to the scene and located the armed man, later identified as 33-year-old Arthur Porter, of Northwest, D.C. and attempted to stop him. Officials said Porter started running from police and led them on a foot pursuit. One of the officers told Porter not to pull his gun out, but officials said that he turned toward the officers and discharged several rounds. A responding officer nearby was struck in the side and fell to the ground. "I don't think you can speculate about friendly fire at this point," an MPD official said during Thursday's news conference. During the foot pursuit, officials said Porter then ran in between two buildings nearby and was confronted by another officer before he was struck several times. Officials said officers rendered aid at the scene before emergency crews took over. Porter was taken to the hospital where he was later pronounced dead. Officials said the officer who was struck was also taken to the hospital and was just released Friday. All officers involved in the incident have been placed on administrative leave as an investigation into the incident is underway, officials said. The circumstances scene in the body camera video is also expected to be reviewed by the U.S. Attorney's Office. Support us on Amazon! https://www.amazon.com/shop/policebodycamvideos
